wild in this joint getting wild it's
1:00
getting a little little sideways as it
1:02
were
1:03
Not a whole lot, dude.
1:04
Got up same Wednesday morning schedule as
1:06
always.
1:07
Get up, go coach, come back.
1:10
Five-person class at five a.m.
1:12
My one-person class is six a.m.
1:15
Personal training by Corey.
1:19
It's not set up that way, though.
1:20
That's just how many people come for the
1:22
class?
1:23
Generally speaking, five a.m.,
1:27
depending on the workout,
1:28
that crew is either all in or half
1:31
of them are going to do something
1:32
different.
1:33
And this morning it was squat clean,
1:37
it was a ten rep max back squat,
1:38
and it was squat clean,
1:40
burpees over the bar, bike,
1:42
burpees over...
1:42
But it was sprint intervals,
1:44
like full-on one-minute sprints with a
1:47
one-minute break.
1:49
And the other four that were there were
1:51
like, no, we ain't doing that.
1:53
So I asked about the one-person classes,
1:58
like...
2:00
when I first started CrossFit,
2:01
we were a very, very,
2:02
very small gym and you'd show up some
2:06
days and you're the only car in the
2:07
parking lot.
2:08
And that one-on-one session with the
2:10
coach,
2:11
cause I didn't pay for personal training.
2:12
I was there to be with a class,
2:14
right?
2:16
I didn't like the personal surprise
2:18
one-on-one trainings where the coach has
2:20
nothing else to do,
2:21
but be eyes on you.
2:25
So I'll say this, uh,
2:28
The lady who was there at six a.m.,
2:30
that's where she comes.
2:31
She comes at six.
2:32
Like,
2:33
doesn't matter what else is going on.
2:34
And she's there at six o'clock.
2:36
It used to be that there was at
2:38
least three people in there since school
2:41
started.
2:42
One of those ladies has moved to five
2:44
a.m.
2:44
because she has to go back and get
2:45
her kids on the bus and stuff like
2:46
that.
2:49
So like six a.m.
2:50
was never a real big class.
2:52
There's always, you know, three, four,
2:54
five, maybe five people in it.
2:56
But Tracy's really,
2:56
really good about listening,
2:58
going through and doing what I tell her
3:01
to do or suggest for her to do,
3:02
I should say,
3:03
and lets me push her and get her
3:05
through.
3:05
Like she doesn't seem to mind.
3:07
So it's not that big a deal.
3:09
It's crazy because my first gym,
3:11
like there was actually like a business
3:14
that asked for a five a.m.
3:16
class.
3:18
And that business brought like twenty
3:19
people.
3:21
And so for consistency purposes,
3:24
you got about fifteen a day.
3:26
Yeah.
3:27
Then I go to Polaris and they're five
3:30
a.m.
3:30
and six a.m.
3:32
The schedule opens at eight p.m.
3:35
If you did not have your class reserved
3:37
by eight oh one, you didn't have it.
3:41
Wow.
3:43
On five, five a.m.
3:44
and six a.m.
3:46
our big classes are generally the
3:47
afternoon classes like five thirty
3:50
yesterday we had oh let's see one two
3:55
probably about eight to eight ten people
3:57
yesterday at five thirty five a.m like i
3:59
said it's a crap shoot there's either
4:00
eight people in there or there's four five
4:04
something like that and it really does
4:06
depend because that five a.m crew they
4:07
will they've been there forever one of
4:11
them literally since the door opened since
4:12
before the door opened actually jared
4:15
And they will literally look at the board
4:16
and go, what is that again?
4:18
And I'll go to explain to them, like,
4:20
yeah, we're not doing that.
4:20
We're going to do something on the other
4:21
side.
4:22
And then the other ones that just come
4:23
for class, I mean,
4:24
they come and they give what they got,
4:27
which is fun.
4:29
They're a fun group.
4:29
It's one of my fun – them and
4:32
Saturday mornings are my – that's two of
4:34
my favorite classes to coach.
4:38
Yeah.
4:38
Just because I know all of them.
4:39
And if you're there on Saturday morning,
4:41
generally speaking,
4:42
you're there because you want to be there.
4:44
it's not just because it's ingrained in
4:45
your routine.
4:46
Like, Oh, I just got off work.
4:47
I go to the gym or whatever.
4:48
Like if you're there on Saturday morning,
4:50
you're usually there because you want to
4:51
be.
4:52
And it's usually ends up being a good
4:53
time.
4:55
Yeah.
4:55
When I coached, um,
4:57
I coached the five AM,
5:00
six AM once a week.
5:02
And those were my guys, man.
5:04
Those are people that were my age.
5:06
They wanted to listen to my music.
5:09
Um, and we had a good time,
5:10
real good time.
5:13
But I personally, I've done them all.
5:16
Like I've tried to do the five AM.
5:17
I've tried to do six AM.
5:18
Um, I, but,
5:21
but where I'm most comfortable now at this
5:24
age is noon,
5:26
which is why we do the show.
5:27
And now I'm back to evenings, but it's,
5:30
um,
5:30
but evenings or noon are my comfortable
5:33
times.
5:34
Um, I'm so stiff in the morning,
5:37
like waking up,
5:38
like warmups are just brutal morning for
5:42
me.
5:43
once it gets cold or our version of
5:46
cold first time here yeah um i will
5:50
tell me about gold no no no no
5:53
code for us uh then yeah my morning
5:56
warm up you know what i mean i'm
5:58
two sessions a day
6:00
It takes a little bit longer because I
6:01
got to get blood flowing to all the
6:03
various parts and places and whatnot.
6:05
But right now, I didn't do that.
6:07
Same thing, dude.
6:08
I've been to every single class that we
6:09
have.
6:10
We used to have a six thirty.
6:11
I was a six thirty guy for a
6:13
very, very long time.
6:17
But my morning, morning, morning,
6:20
afternoon.
6:22
Sean Lenderman working out any time
6:23
besides five a.m.
6:25
is just wrong.
6:28
I don't know.
6:29
So.
6:30
this five AM squat club guy kept popping
6:33
up in the chat.
6:33
Right.
6:34
Yeah.
6:35
And I was like, what, what is this?
6:37
I don't, I, who is this?
6:40
We've been, uh, chatting.
6:43
DM wise and it's become a little community
6:47
and I guess some of the people in
6:48
our chat do this they get up and
6:52
they do these workouts with five a.m.
6:55
squat club on a YouTube video at five
6:59
a.m.
6:59
in the morning Eastern Time and and it's
7:03
become like a little club that shows up
7:05
every morning in a little mini community
7:07
and I think that's pretty freaking cool
7:10
awesome
7:13
That's awesome.
7:14
You can start something like that.
7:15
Other way.
7:17
A five a.m.
7:17
squat club split into my DMs.
7:20
Just let's make this.
7:22
Who is pursuing who?
7:24
Yeah.
7:26
That's awesome.
7:27
If you can get something like that to
7:28
catch on and stay being a thing,
7:32
you know what I mean?
7:33
Especially today's age.
7:35
That's pretty awesome if you can keep it
7:37
moving like that.
7:38
That's pretty cool.
7:38
I like that.
7:42
David Reed,
7:42
I would love to join at five p.m.,
7:44
but I'm sleeping.
7:48
At five a.m.
7:48
this morning, I'd already had breakfast,
7:53
had some caffeine,
7:55
and was starting to breathe.
7:56
Wrote everything on the board,
7:58
got the bikes out,
8:00
made the bucket with some soapy water to
8:02
wipe everything down,
8:03
got all the bikes out.
8:07
Yes, sir.
8:08
I am always the hunty.
8:11
in my dreams.
8:18
I wanted to update everybody on my mom
8:20
yesterday.
8:20
She fell at work right before the show.
8:24
She's doing well.
8:25
She's home.
8:27
Had a complete head scan done.
8:29
No bleeds, no fractures.
8:32
She did hit her head.
8:33
That was the big major concern.
8:36
Has a pretty good shiner over the left
8:41
eye.
8:42
And it's swollen up a little bit.
8:45
But she's doing well.
8:46
But here's my question to you.
8:48
Yeah, my mother is,
8:50
she's going to kill me.
8:51
She watches this show every day.
8:55
My mother is at an age where she
9:02
is so spry for her age.
9:04
Let's say that.
9:05
But she is at an advanced age.
9:07
She falls in a school.
9:10
She works at a school.
9:13
Hits her head off the floor.
9:15
Why the hell did they not call an
9:17
ambulance?
9:18
Right.
9:19
Transport her to the hospital.
9:21
That would seem to be a pretty,
9:23
pretty easy thing to do.
9:24
You don't have to call an ambulance.
9:25
You can call nine one one,
9:26
like three numbers.
9:28
They helped her off the floor and had
9:30
her friend come pick her up to take
9:32
her to the hospital.
9:34
No, no.
9:37
That is flat out irresponsible.
9:40
Yeah,
9:40
I'm going to say irresponsible is the word
9:41
I would use.
9:42
That's the word I would use.
9:43
If when she gets to the hospital,
9:45
their main concern is brain bleeds and
9:48
fractures.
9:50
Yeah.
9:52
She should have not been moved.
9:54
No.
9:56
She hit her head, first of all.
9:58
Yeah.
9:59
And she had a school.
10:00
She didn't bounce it off the carpet
10:02
anywhere.
10:03
That was off of probably solid stone at
10:04
that point.
10:06
So, yeah.
10:06
No,
10:06
the first thing I'm doing is calling an
10:08
ambulance.
10:10
Jesus Christ, dude.
10:12
Yeah.
10:14
Yeah,
10:14
so my nephew who lives here in Columbus,
10:16
he and I were not happy yesterday
10:18
afternoon.
10:19
No.
10:20
Shit, I'm not happy right now.
10:21
I don't live anywhere near Columbus.
10:24
And my mom's in Pennsylvania,
10:25
so we're like... Yeah, it's not a close...
10:30
Like, grab someone by the neck, you know?
10:33
And so he called and put in a
10:37
call to the superintendent of the school
10:39
district.
10:41
But we have not heard back yet.
10:43
Phone a friend is not an option if
10:45
an elderly lady falls and bounces her head
10:48
off of the floor.
10:49
It's not who wants to be a millionaire.
10:53
It's who wants to not.
10:55
That's infuriating.
10:59
It is.
11:01
So anyway, but I,
11:02
but she's doing well and,
11:04
and she listens every day.
11:05
And I know that reached out to me.
11:09
So just wanted to give an update to
11:11
that.
11:11
If anybody asks,
11:12
tell them you should see the other guy
11:14
and they ask about your black eye.
11:15
Yeah.
11:16
Yeah.
11:19
Yeah.
11:20
Oh, I've got stories, man.
11:21
My mom is feisty, big, big feisty.
11:26
So, um,
11:29
Another thing I wanted to talk to you
11:30
about is yesterday we had our first pop
11:33
in the Masters age group.
11:36
Surprise, surprise.
11:37
A Brazilian.
11:39
Yearly, we... And that's the first, right?
11:45
Right.
11:46
So my question to you is,
11:48
what's the over-under for this year?
11:51
Five.
11:51
You think five?
11:52
Five.
11:55
Five, and I would take the over.
11:57
Okay.
11:59
Okay.
12:00
Okay.
12:02
Yeah.
12:06
Corey is a Brazilianist.
12:10
Listen,
12:12
I was chatting with someone yesterday and
12:15
I said,
12:17
it's crazy what's going on in Brazil,
12:20
right?
12:21
And I said,
12:23
do they put Tren on their Wheaties?
12:29
And
12:31
The response was they sell different
12:34
cereals.
12:35
They sell Chiribiotics.
12:39
I like that.
12:41
Cap Tren Crunch.
12:45
That's clever.
12:45
I like that one.
12:47
And Raisin Branivar.
12:56
I hope Hiller's watching because I feel
12:58
like he could do something with Raisin
12:59
Branivar.
13:00
Like, that's hilarious.
13:02
Cap, Trend, Crunch, and Raisin Branivar.
13:06
Those were my two favorites.
13:08
Yes, absolutely.
13:10
No, John George,
13:11
that lady was in fifth place that they
13:14
popped yesterday.
13:16
I know they go at least five.
13:18
Yeah, because that lady was in fifth,
13:19
so...
13:22
Oh, this is not isolated to Brazil.
13:27
It is not.
13:28
But they seem to lean into it more
13:30
than others.
13:32
From what I understand,
13:33
and I do not know that this for
13:35
a fact,
13:35
this is pure speculation and hearsay on my
13:37
point,
13:38
but it's they're very easy to get in
13:40
Brazil.
13:41
Like you can walk to a drugstore and
13:43
be like, let me get some of that.
13:45
Let me get some of that.
13:46
Let me get some of that and go
13:47
on about your business.
13:50
Not that that makes it right by any
13:53
stretch of the imagination, but it's like,
13:56
I wouldn't,
13:57
I wouldn't know who to call Scott.
13:59
I live in South Louisiana.
14:00
There's bodybuilders.
14:01
There's CrossFitters.
14:02
There's like name the thing.
14:04
I know all of them.
14:05
And I would not, first of all,
14:07
I wouldn't do it to begin with,
14:08
but even if I wanted to,
14:10
I wouldn't know who to ask.
14:11
Like, how do you, Hey man,
14:13
you got to get a cap trend crunch.
14:16
Yeah.
14:19
Like, I don't know.
14:23
It's not worth it.
14:25
It is not worth it,
14:26
not by a long shot.
14:29
First of all, your reputation is ruined,
14:32
period, right?
14:34
The only person we've seen come back
14:35
successfully tonight is Ricky Mack,
14:37
and that's because, as it turns out,
14:38
he's a lovable guy.
14:40
He's an idiot, but he's a lovable idiot,
14:42
right?
14:42
He's our idiot.
14:43
We will protect him.
14:44
He served his time.
14:45
He came back.
14:46
You're going to get blasted everywhere
14:49
humanly possible.
14:51
Your reputation is going to be ruined,
14:52
like I said.
14:53
And what are you actually doing to your
14:55
body long term?
14:57
I'm forty eight, dude.
14:58
I do not need any help making my
15:00
body any worse than it's going to be
15:01
later on down the road.
15:06
Chemically,
15:07
especially considering the shit I put in
15:09
my body when I was twenty something years
15:11
ago, twenty five years ago,
15:12
I didn't give a damn about what I
15:13
put in my body.
15:14
That was a whole different animal right
15:15
there.
15:17
I just don't.
15:22
Yeah.
15:23
Yeah.
15:26
Lito's got an excellent, excellent,
15:29
excellent question, but yeah.
15:32
I don't like to name out accusations,
15:34
but I will read it as someone is
15:36
clearly very good at not getting caught.
15:38
How are they be not being tested five
15:41
times a year?
15:45
That's a solid, solid question.
15:48
I think it is flat out cash.
15:53
It is that to go down and to
15:57
another country and do a test is much
16:00
more expensive than doing a test here in
16:03
the United States.
16:04
Right.
16:06
So regretfully,
16:08
it's very hard to catch them because the
16:10
expense is so high.
16:12
And as someone pointed out here, um,
16:20
She is a doctor,
16:22
so she knows the half-life,
16:25
and she knows all the time and everything.
16:30
I believe Hiller did a video about how
16:33
PEDs stay in women a lot longer than
16:35
they stay in men because of the way
16:37
their bodies are made up.
16:39
Very interesting video he did.
16:42
I don't believe she's on it anymore.
16:45
I believe she was on it.
16:47
So now her is going to be hard
16:50
at this, at this point in her career.
16:55
If, if that makes sense.
16:57
No, absolutely.
16:58
It absolutely does.
16:59
Um,
17:01
That was the Hillary you're talking about,
17:03
when he was talking about,
17:04
especially in women,
17:05
even if you've only run one cycle,
17:08
two cycles, whatever,
17:09
the long lasting effects from those two
17:12
cycles are gonna stick with you for years
17:14
and years and years and years down the
17:15
road.
17:16
More so in women than they do in
17:18
men.
17:18
So yeah.
17:25
So I think ever catching that person is
17:28
going to be very,
17:28
very hard to do because I think she's
17:32
already gained the effects of it and
17:34
doesn't need to do it as much anymore,
17:37
if at all.
17:38
I'll put it like this.
17:39
If said person does get popped,
17:42
it's going to be the duh herb around
17:44
the world because everybody in our space
17:47
is going to be like, well, yeah,
17:50
moving right along.
17:50
Yeah.
17:51
Yeah.
17:58
Ken Walters most of these drug testing
18:01
companies have locations all over the
18:02
world and doesn't HQ have country reps
18:06
that could accompany maybe I don't know
18:09
the details of that one time but I
18:11
seriously doubt that they do now with all
18:13
the cutbacks that they made and especially
18:15
with PE being people that's running it
18:18
right now they couldn't possibly give a
18:20
shit less there's no way yeah we know
18:27
Jenny
18:29
To sustain the muscle mass she sustains
18:31
year-round, though,
18:32
I don't see how that's possible with
18:34
female levels of testosterone.
18:41
Honestly,
18:42
I would have said the same thing until
18:44
Hiller explained it to me in a video
18:46
where he showed this woman who had stopped
18:50
using for a few years and still had
18:54
massive muscle to her body structure.
19:01
And I would even say, like,
19:02
I've seen Andrea Pinheiro over the years.
19:08
She is not as big as she was
19:09
two years ago.
19:11
But it is apparent she's still bigger than
19:14
most women,
19:15
and she still is getting the effects of
19:19
whatever was done at one time in her
19:20
life.
19:22
She's not only bigger than most women,
19:23
she's bigger than a lot of dudes I
19:24
know.
19:26
True.
19:31
Anyway, again, over under is five.
19:34
How many we had last year?
19:35
It was five or six last year,
19:38
wasn't it?
19:40
I knew we had the three people that
19:42
I interviewed and highlighted,
19:44
and then we had, I think,
19:45
a couple more on top of that.
19:50
I wish they drug tested me, Birch.
19:52
I really, really did.
19:54
I wish somebody would show up to my
19:55
office right now.
19:58
I would gladly go with them.
20:00
Look,
20:01
they're going to find Sour Pink Lemonade,
20:05
Ghost,
20:07
some banana chips and the protein uh the
20:11
first warm protein i had this morning uh
20:16
aaron fraser said liver king stopped peds
20:18
and still maintaining muscle okay i also
20:22
have a bridge in in brooklyn that i'd
20:25
like to sell you yeah he's he stopped
20:30
taking them yeah he stopped taking them
20:35
If I stop taking him,
20:36
you mean that he maybe got somebody else
20:38
to start giving them to him?
20:44
Oh, yeah.
20:45
No, she's definitely bigger than I am,
20:46
Birch.
20:46
I got you.
20:53
I wish they would.
20:54
Podcast ratings, if they came in,
20:56
you did it live.
21:01
I'm in.
21:02
Send somebody on down.
21:04
Send somebody on down.
21:06
Please do.
21:07
So have you seen Amanda Hari's interview
21:11
with Will?
21:13
I saw a clip from it this morning.
21:16
And by a clip from it,
21:16
I think that was it.
21:18
Yeah.
21:18
So I had it in my notes and
21:23
I wanted to talk today with you about
21:27
the PR problem that WFP has.
21:30
right and it had nothing to do with
21:33
amanda's interview and then i watched that
21:36
and i was like what the hell like
21:38
they can't even get out of their own
21:40
way that i think that's their biggest
21:44
problem right now right so what i was
21:48
going to start with is i was watching
21:49
boys interrupted last night and they're
21:53
basically saying that if the schedules
21:56
don't
21:58
work out better amongst the two,
22:01
they're going to have to make a choice.
22:03
And it seemed pretty obvious that their
22:05
choice was not WFP.
22:07
Correct.
22:10
And so with them for high-end athletes in
22:14
the CrossFit space saying that they would
22:17
most likely choose the CrossFit season
22:20
over WFP, that's a PR nightmare for WFP.
22:23
Big time.
22:25
If you're trying to grow and you lose
22:28
those four, you're effed.
22:36
And so that was my thought coming into
22:39
today.
22:40
Then when I saw that,
22:44
the thing with Amanda and Will and him
22:47
saying that,
22:50
She asked,
22:51
would you ever see the WFP as a
22:52
semifinal piece to the CrossFit Games
22:56
season?
22:57
And he said, no,
22:58
but I do see the CrossFit Games becoming
23:01
a tour stop on the WFP.
23:03
I'm going to need a second.
23:14
So breathe that in for a second.
23:19
Hold on,
23:20
let me get my wheel more at him.
23:21
Hold on.
23:24
Look at the ratings on the CrossFit Games.
23:28
Look at the ratings on any tour stop
23:30
you've had.
23:30
And I know we're not to the championship
23:32
yet.
23:33
Right.
23:34
Maybe I'm just delusional and Copenhagen
23:37
is going to blow it out of the
23:38
water and they're going to be right and
23:42
I'm going to be wrong.
23:44
But are you kidding me?
23:46
what kind of delusion do you have coming
23:49
in at this place and at this stature
23:54
to say that you,
23:57
the only way you think that there's going
23:58
to be some kind of working together is
24:02
if the games become a tour stop.
24:07
Bro.
24:08
That's like saying that the, the,
24:12
the adult soccer league that I used to
24:13
play in would be a great place.
24:16
great qualifier for the world cup or the
24:21
world cup rather would be a great
24:22
qualifier for the adult soccer league.
24:25
I used to play in like, yeah,
24:27
those guys are pretty good.
24:28
They could probably be part of our
24:30
tournament if they wanted to.
24:32
That being those college football playoffs
24:34
saying, Hey, why don't we,
24:37
we think that in the future,
24:39
the super bowl will be one of the
24:41
playoff games in the college football
24:44
playoff.
24:45
Yeah,
24:45
we might have to move it a little
24:47
bit because, you know,
24:49
they're not usually right around the same
24:50
time.
24:51
So we're going to have to move the
24:51
Super Bowl up a little bit to like
24:53
late December or something like that.
24:55
That way it doesn't interfere.
24:56
It can be part of the college football
24:59
season, the playoff season.
25:02
Yeah, Tega's right.
25:05
Will is DeLulu.
25:08
He has balls.
25:09
Got to admire it.
25:11
I wish, look,
25:11
he has the confidence of a fucking
25:13
three-year-old on a diving board.
25:15
Like, that's amazing.
25:17
I audibly laughed when he said that.
25:20
Yeah.
25:21
Proof you should start whatever business
25:23
you were thinking of and just be
25:24
delusional about success.
25:27
I...
25:31
Yesterday, I was trying to defend them.
25:33
I was trying to show what I thought
25:36
they were trying to achieve.
25:38
The PR nightmare I thought they had with
25:40
four top athletes saying,
25:42
if it comes down to it,
25:45
and this year was tough enough,
25:48
if they had more events,
25:50
we're probably going to have to make some
25:51
decisions.
25:52
The PR nightmare that that brought last
25:56
night to then this morning seeing...
25:59
Yeah, we're good.
26:01
In fact,
26:01
we're so good that the thing that's been
26:03
here for twenty years,
26:05
we're hoping that they become just a tour
26:07
stop for us.
26:11
We've been here not even a full year
26:13
yet.
26:15
We've been here not even a full year
26:16
yet.
26:18
But yeah,
26:18
I think the games could be a tour
26:20
stop.
26:21
Maybe tour stop two.
26:26
Again, I admire the man's confidence.
26:29
Sean in Oregon,
26:30
fake it till you make it.
26:36
Justin seemed very hesitant about next
26:38
year.
26:38
The clip I saw of Justin, yes,
26:40
he was very like... I thought James,
26:44
that's the one that surprised me.
26:46
Because James has performed well at the
26:48
two tour stops.
26:50
And he took third at the games.
26:52
He took first at Waterpalooza.
26:54
And he seemed very,
26:57
very suspicious about next season being
27:00
workable.
27:03
Especially,
27:03
didn't they say they were adding another
27:04
one?
27:05
Another stop?
27:06
They are adding another stop.
27:07
Yeah, so you're adding another stop.
27:10
You got semifinals.
27:11
Quarterfinals are back.
27:13
All they, everybody has to do that.
27:15
So you, you got the open,
27:17
you got quarterfinals,
27:18
you got in-person semifinals plus however
27:22
many tour stops these guys are going to
27:23
do.
27:24
Plus if these guys,
27:26
like if however many take from semifinals,
27:28
now you have to compete at one,
27:30
you might have to compete at another one.
27:32
If you don't make the first one that
27:34
you go to,
27:34
you don't make the games on the first
27:35
shot.
27:35
You might do another one.
27:37
That's a lot, dude.
27:40
Um,
27:42
people are asking, did he really say that?
27:44
And it may be just the Brian friend
27:47
thing.
27:48
I don't know.
27:49
I can't read sarcasm in text,
27:52
but it's right here.
27:55
Let me,
27:56
hopefully I can get the volume on fast.
27:58
A CrossFit Games semifinal event.
28:00
This is crazy.
28:02
I could see maybe in some world the
28:04
Games becoming a part of our season and
28:06
one of our main tours because we have
28:08
the exact same roster.
28:11
But who knows?
28:13
Yeah,
28:13
I think that would be awesome to have
28:15
the Games as one of the tours.
28:17
There could be a possibility of becoming a
28:18
CrossFit Games.
28:19
There it is.
28:21
Pause.
28:27
Because we have the exact same roster.
28:28
No, you don't.
28:29
No, you don't.
28:31
You don't.
28:32
You don't have the exact same roster.
28:43
So what CrossFit is saying, or yeah,
28:45
there you go.
28:46
David Reed,
28:46
all sports work around their marquee
28:48
event.
28:49
Diamond League, as an example,
28:50
works around the Olympics.
28:52
He has will not watch sports.
28:56
World Cups every four years.
28:59
Every soccer league on the planet shuts
29:02
down during World Cup because that's
29:05
what's going on.
29:08
It doesn't matter what else is happening.
29:10
When the World Cup comes around,
29:12
every other...
29:13
When they moved it to the winter in
29:15
Qatar, everything gets shut down.
29:20
And in what world...
29:28
Will has everyone talking about this
29:30
event, so he's getting pretty solid PR.
29:32
If you look at it from that perspective,
29:35
from all PR is good PR,
29:37
even if they're talking shit about you,
29:40
then yeah, absolutely.
29:41
I would one hundred percent agree with
29:42
that.
29:45
I do think that there's some truth to
29:47
that,
29:48
but I don't think the juice is worth
29:50
the squeeze.
29:51
No, no.
29:52
when you have PR that's not positive,
29:54
you need to then spin it in a
29:56
way that works for you.
29:58
They don't have anybody that's spinning
30:00
any of this stuff.
30:03
And I made a comment on Amanda's video
30:05
that when she asked about some of the
30:07
complications of the season,
30:09
he just kept comparing it to F-one.
30:12
And I think that the big problem that
30:13
their people have is they have never
30:16
simplified what the season is.
30:18
It's always comparing it to golf,
30:20
comparing it to tennis,
30:22
comparing it to F-one and a point season
30:25
structure.
30:26
There are tons and tons of people in
30:28
this space that have never watched F one,
30:31
never watched golf and never watched
30:33
tennis.
30:34
So you keep comparing it to those sports
30:37
does not help them understand the system.
30:42
I watched tennis when my mom was playing
30:44
tennis.
30:45
when I was in junior high and high
30:48
school,
30:49
when she was playing tournaments around
30:50
here, because she liked it.
30:52
And when it came off,
30:53
when it was on, if the U.S.
30:56
Open was on, whatever,
30:58
that's the only time.
30:58
But to follow an entire season, no.
31:01
F-one, pretty cool.
31:02
If I see that a race is on
31:04
and there's nothing else on there, sure,
31:06
I'll watch an F-one race for a couple
31:08
laps, whatever.
31:09
I like cars.
31:11
That's about the extent of it.
31:15
maybe we're not thinking about this the
31:16
right way.
31:17
CrossFit makes perfect sense here.
31:19
To be fair,
31:20
the Mighty Ducks went from Minnesota youth
31:22
hockey to the Goodwill Games.
31:26
So it can be done in a Disney
31:28
movie.
31:29
It can be done in a Disney movie.
31:36
uh tristan patrick side note on f-one i
31:38
started watching drive to survive and that
31:40
is lit it really is but i don't
31:43
have to sit through the whole race what
31:45
i love about drive to survive it gives
31:46
me all the drama that goes on without
31:49
having to sit through cars going around in
31:51
a circle yeah far around the road course
31:56
and i don't know if it's still this
31:57
way but the
32:00
when I was semi paying attention to what
32:02
was going on in F one,
32:04
like there's not a whole lot of passing.
32:05
So it's like you qualify.
32:07
Cool.
32:07
Don't wreck.
32:08
Stay out in front from where you
32:09
qualified.
32:10
You're probably going to end up winning
32:11
race pit stops and whatnot aside.
32:14
So it's not super exciting to watch for
32:17
someone who doesn't give a shit about it.
32:18
Like we'll watch it if it's only because
32:20
I like sports.
32:22
What you don't see in the racing and
32:24
you see in this Drive to Survive series
32:27
are teammates that are pissed because the
32:30
other one's getting more favorable
32:31
treatment than the other,
32:32
so they slam into each other on the
32:34
track, and then they're both out.
32:37
Things like that.
32:38
That's what makes it exciting to watch.
32:42
That I could get by.
32:44
John George.
32:45
I think he's just hurting the credibility
32:46
of the project.
32:47
I mean, league.
32:48
Am I the only one...
32:51
alone in thinking this, I should say,
32:53
is that how long do we call it
32:56
a project?
32:58
A project is something that you see
33:00
through from start to finish.
33:03
If I would be building a deck at
33:04
my house,
33:04
that's a project that I'm working on.
33:06
When the deck's done,
33:07
there's no more deck,
33:08
so the project's over with.
33:10
Can we call it something else?
33:12
The World Fitness League, perhaps?
33:13
Maybe a WFL?
33:14
That probably would make a whole lot more
33:16
sense.
33:19
Maybe I'm thinking too much into it.
33:21
I think that's the least of their problems
33:23
at this point.
33:24
I agree.
33:27
I agree.
33:29
It just, it doesn't,
33:30
it doesn't sound like,
33:32
like a world fitness project to me sounds
33:33
like let's get everybody in the world into
33:36
fitness.
33:37
Like that's, that's what WF,
33:39
like world fitness project.
33:40
I want to get the world fit.
33:43
It doesn't scream fitness racing to me.
33:46
I don't know.
33:49
See, me and Tristan is like,
33:54
locks his car doors if he hears he's
33:56
near a project.
33:57
That's a fact.
33:59
That is a fact.
34:01
I'm not disagreeing that the name is
34:02
awful, but honestly,
34:05
that's probably number seventy-two on the
34:07
list of things that need fixed.
34:08
A hundred percent.
34:09
A hundred percent.
34:12
That just solidifies the fact that me and
34:13
Tristan were separated at birth.
34:17
It's fine.
34:18
Yeah, that's a scary proposition there.
34:20
That's my dude, man.
34:23
oh anyway what else we got uh that's
34:28
why i put it that i yeah uh
34:32
he wants a league but calls it a
34:33
project i'm with you corey yeah so uh
34:40
uh um tour stop three will be the
34:41
crossfit games in albany
34:50
Oh, yes.
34:51
Did you see?
34:52
Yeah,
34:52
you caught coffee pods a lot yesterday
34:54
with Pat.
34:56
About halfway through.
35:00
So same.
35:01
I started it.
35:02
I came over here to watch you,
35:05
hang out with you,
35:06
and I went and caught the tail end
35:07
of it after you got off.
35:17
I want to say how you can be
35:17
involved in something on the level that
35:20
Pat seems is seemingly involved in and no,
35:24
almost nothing about it or not have any
35:28
of the,
35:29
like no other stuff that everybody else
35:30
seems to know.
35:32
Well, I don't know.
35:33
Well, I don't know.
35:33
Well, and just kept like,
35:39
you can't be immune to criticism if you're
35:41
going to be part of anything.
35:44
Right.
35:45
Whatever you're in,
35:46
if you're going to be a part of
35:47
it, then chances are better not.
35:48
It doesn't matter what it is.
35:49
You could be feeding homeless children.
35:52
At some point,
35:52
somebody is going to criticize you for
35:54
doing it one way or the other.
35:57
And you can't just be, well,
36:00
everybody's just hating on me.
36:01
Well, everybody's just hating on us.
36:02
Well, everybody's just hating on us.
36:04
No, they're not.
36:06
This show is a perfect example.
36:07
Whenever they first announced that they
36:09
were a thing,
36:10
Savannah was another good example.
36:11
Hey, this sounds cool.
36:13
Let's check it out.
36:14
And then the more they got exposed as
36:16
to what they were actually doing,
36:17
I hate using that word expose,
36:19
but I don't know a better way to
36:20
put it.
36:21
Once it got rolling and people didn't
36:23
understand it and they started making
36:25
missteps here, there and yonder,
36:27
whatever it is,
36:28
and people are just pointing out the fact.
36:31
Hey,
36:32
Austin almost lost his balls in the middle
36:34
of a workout.
36:36
Ricky had two bikes break on him in
36:38
this same workout, right?
36:42
Your point structure is kind of weird.
36:45
We don't understand it.
36:46
You know, just all the lighting,
36:49
whatever else you want to call it.
36:51
And instead of going, yep,
36:53
we acknowledge those things.
36:53
We're not, you know,
36:55
Pat's on there yesterday and just going,
36:56
well,
36:56
people just hate on it for no reason.
36:58
People just hate on it for no reason.
37:00
no, that's not really what's happening.
37:02
And I can't imagine living with my head
37:04
in the sand like that for an extended
37:06
period of time.
37:09
Yeah.
37:10
Yeah.
37:11
I, I, again,
37:12
I apparently I'm not to the angry, uh,
37:15
Pat part that happens.
37:16
You're going to eat the last ten minutes
37:18
or so.
37:19
That's ten, fifteen minutes.
37:23
It was, uh, it was interesting.
37:25
I'll leave it at that.
37:27
Let's finish that up this afternoon.
37:31
But I wanted to get through some of
37:32
the,
37:32
like the Amanda stuff this morning and
37:35
boys interrupted was way,
37:37
way more interesting than I,
37:40
with it being the off season,
37:41
like it's hard finding like interesting
37:43
topics in the sport piece of whatever this
37:46
is.
37:48
And I cannot wait till Sunday night to
37:49
talk about their discussion on the GHD and
37:54
I don't know if,
37:54
did you see Boys Interrupted?
37:55
No.
37:57
So apparently, you know,
37:59
Hopper does the most beautiful GHDs you've
38:02
ever seen.
38:02
Very nice.
38:04
And he was almost apologizing for his
38:10
technique on the GHD.
38:12
But they're beautiful.
38:14
And James is our trash.
38:22
He's so thing.
38:24
Yeah.
38:24
It's they don't look good at all.
38:26
No.
38:26
And so I guess James put a tape
38:28
mark like they did at syndicate crown on
38:31
his GHD.
38:32
So to make sure his butt was behind
38:34
the line and he said, wow,
38:36
those are way harder.
38:42
so there was a discussion about that that
38:43
has been carolyn privo's like biggest pet
38:47
peeve of this season i swear to god
38:50
and i cannot wait to get her her
38:52
topic on that but back on the wfp
38:55
and i've got to go in a couple
38:56
minutes because i have a one o'clock
38:57
meeting um uh savannah i agree pat is
39:00
such a victim we have thrown a hundred
39:03
that a hundred times more criticism at the
39:05
crossfit games than wtf yeah i mean i've
39:08
criticized both
39:11
And if there's something that they do
39:13
well, I say what they do well.
39:15
But all that the people supporting the WFP
39:21
want to hear is the negative stuff and
39:24
then to go trumpet their horns that
39:27
they're defending the WFP.
39:32
That's the big problem.
39:35
Nobody is looking at it with a critical
39:37
eye.
39:37
They're just...
39:40
They're doing everything perfect.
39:44
Like the statement that Will made that the
39:46
games are going to be a tour stop.
39:49
Because they're so good that the CrossFit
39:52
Games should just come on over.
39:56
Hey,
39:58
this thing that's been around for twenty
39:59
years should definitely be a part of the
40:02
thing that we just started six months ago.
40:06
That's one hundred percent a thing.
40:10
That's my boy.
40:12
That is my boy.
40:15
It's so dumb.
40:18
So dumb.
40:24
And then the last thing I'm going to
40:25
say is all the promised and innovative
40:27
media that they were going to come out
40:29
with
40:30
They have nothing in the space that gets
40:34
the views and the likes of the people
40:36
that are here.
40:37
Savon, Hiller, Coffee Pods and Wads,
40:41
all of them.
40:42
They get shit tons of views.
40:46
WFP has put nothing out that gets anything
40:49
close to that.
40:51
Why?
40:52
And then the place that could help promote
40:56
you, you just keep dogging.
41:00
That part blows my mind.
41:01
You just keep dogging.
41:07
It'd be like if you were a new
41:08
startup league and you started dogging
41:10
ESPN.
41:12
Yeah.
41:13
I want to start a new sports news
41:16
channel.
41:18
And the first thing you did was get
41:19
on and say how shitty ESPN was.
41:21
Their coverage is terrible.
41:24
Really?
41:25
Because they covered everything.
41:27
I've literally seen cornhole tournaments
41:29
and tag on ESPN.
41:34
They literally hired the buttery bros and
41:35
said innovative and new and unique and let
41:39
them do the same thing they've always
41:41
done.
41:45
And look,
41:46
kudos to Mars and Hebrew because what they
41:49
do, they are very, very good at.
41:52
They've been doing the exact same thing.
41:55
since however long they've been making
41:57
videos whenever they started doing the
41:58
brotherly road stuff and but it is one
42:02
hundred percent recycled every single
42:04
state every single episode of one of
42:06
whatever they do which is fantastic like
42:09
if that's what that's what cool awesome
42:12
but to say that they're new and innovative
42:13
by any stretch of imagination is not a
42:15
thing all right i got a meeting in
42:19
three minutes yes sir get on it and
42:21
yeah and it's with an outside source so
42:23
i've got to get going
42:25
So, guys, we'll be back tomorrow.
42:26
I'm sure we'll talk more about this.
42:28
Maybe we'll have Corey back because we had
42:30
a short Corey show this week.
42:32
But we'll be back tomorrow with all that
42:36
business.
42:37
And then I'm on the Crisp Easterfield
42:38
podcast tomorrow as well at three p.m.
42:41
Eastern time.
42:42
With that,
42:42
we'll see everybody next time on Lunch
42:46
with the Clydesdale.
42:47
Bye, guys.
